Actor Vidya Balan opened up about working with a ‘healer’ for the past 14 years, and said that they are constantly in touch over the phone, regardless of where she is in the world. She said that her mother introduced her to the healer when she was going through a particularly difficult time in her life. Vidya now swears by it. In a new interview, she spoke about concepts such as ‘Saturn’s decrease’ and ‘access consciousness‘, and claimed that she can make a headache go away by just chanting a simple mantra.
Appearing on the Something Bigger Show with Rodrigo Canelas, Vidya was asked about her journey with healing, and she said, “My healer is a gift to me by my mother. I was going through a tough time about 14 years ago, and my mother introduced me to the healer. Then I just stayed with it, because I enjoyed this process of understanding so much that I just kept at it.”
She compared healing to ‘therapy’, and said that she speaks to her healer from wherever she is in the world. “She’s given me various tools over the years. She uses something called Saturn’s decrease, which just changes the way you think in the moment. For example, if someone has a headache, you can say, ‘You can leave now’, and you repeated it a few times, you’d be surprised to find that your headache will get better.” The interviewer asked her what she meant, and Vidya explained, “So, you have a headache, and you say, ‘Headache, you can leave now’. I’m telling you, it changes!”
Vidya continued, “What she does is actually alchemy.” The basic definition of alchemy says that it’s a mystical form of ‘protoscience’ that aims to transform materials into gold, extend human lifespan, and find a universal cure for all diseases. “She has taken me through EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) and access consciousness… All of this happens on the phone. But it’s about getting in touch with yourself. It’s about not standing in the way of yourself. The only thing standing in our way is ourselves. And I enjoy the process… Healing is a lifelong process, it’s like breathing.”
Vidya spoke about her beliefs in an interview with Samdish Bhatia last year. “You can restructure the way you think, and the way you’ve led your life… the beliefs with which you’ve led your life, by restructuring the construction of your sentence. Simply put, anxious consciousness helps you access your consciousness, your subconscious, and remove the limitations. It makes sure that you don’t stand in your own way,” she said.
